In response to the work of Krauss et al. (ATEL #777), we have performed a refined analysis of the Swift/XRT data on XTE J1701-462. We find a refined XRT position for XTE J1701-462 of R.A. = 17:00:58.3, dec. = -46:11:09.0, with a 6.1 arcsecond error radius (90% containment). This refined position lies 1.7 arcseconds from the Chandra position reported in ATEL #777. We therefore conclude that the Swift/XRT position of XTE J1701-462 is consistent with the Chandra reported position.
